Uropod 3 protopodite with posterior spine-seta, four medial bunches of one���two setae and four anterior-lateral bunches of two���three setae; rami narrow, lanceolate, slightly flattened, with pinnate setae around; exopod slightly longer than endopod, with pinnate setae all around forming bunches, and very small, rudimentary distal segment. Coloration of fresh specimens. Body and appendages covered by large spots. Head with a dorsal V-shaped spot and lateral ones, body segments with transverse dorso-lateral and lateral spots, coxae of pereopods 1���4 with proximal and distal spots. Segments of appendages with a dark distal zone; basis of pereopods 1���2 with anterior and basis of pereopods 5���7 with posterior spots. Protopodites of uropod 3 and telson entirely dark. Differential diagnosis. Babr closely resembles Pallaseopsis, but differs in the following characters. Dorsal and lateral spines on body segments absent (present in Pallaseopsis). Rostrum almost indistinguishable (small but well-established in Pallaseopsis). Telson about as long as the last abdominal segment (clearly shorter in Pallaseopsis). Uronites and uropod propodites armed with dorso-lateral spinesetae (only setae in Pallaseopsis). Pereopod dactyli differ in size among pereopods 3, 4 and 5���7 (all about equal in size in Pallaseopsis). Setae of pereopods 3, 4 and basis of pereopods 5���7 long and dense (short and sparse in Pallaseopsis). Posterior margin of pereopod 7 basis slightly concave and narrowing distally (convex and with posterior and anterior margins distally parallel in Pallaseopsis). Distribution. Endemic of Lake Baikal. Habitat and ecology. Littoral-sublittoral (0���35 m), nekto-benthic, psammophilic (sandy or sandy-muddy bottom).
